Hypocrisy is easier to ignore when the contradictory behavior happens over a long time period. Its much harder to ignore when the events that highlight the hypocrisy are happening simultaneously.

I'm not saying it'll definitely work but I think its worth a try.

To be clear, I'd much rather Obama join the Chicago protestors in the streets. That would be super powerful. But it won't happen because he's not actually on our side. So a tongue-in-cheek 3rd term is about the best we can expect from him.
